Suse Resolution problems.
I can't get my resolution any higher then 1024x768. I tried the control center but there is no resolution listed that's higher. I've had this problem before but I don't remember how I fixed it. I searched the forums and there is nothing that seems to be of any help.
I beleive I ran a program at the console that fixed this, but I don't remember what it was. Radeon 7800 |

The SuSE program to configure your monitor is called sax2. Run it from the command line. ___________________________________ Be prepared. Create a LifeBoat CD. http://users.rcn.com/srstites/LifeBo...home.page.html Steve Stites |
Or you can manually change it yourself by editing you /etc/X11/XF86config-4 (or XF86Config) whichever suse uses. Here is my config on Mandrake 9.2 but I have just one resolution on mine. You can specify different resolution options.

Section "Monitor" |
Thanks to both of you. Finally I got it working.

How do you fix it? I am using Suse 8.2 and have the same problem. I cannot find sax.2 and don't have directory /etc/X11. Thanks, Fangfang |
ffang, the folder will be /etc/X11R6 then
there you can edit your XF86config file |
Not sure which one worked, but I edited the XF86config, and
also ran sax2(not sax.2) in the console. Just type sax2 not ./sax2 I beleive but not sure in 8.2 it would be etc/X11/XF86config-4 |
glad to see you got it worked out JesterDev.

I just found my config file for the terminal "Sony Multiscan 200ES". It contains the following. Any suggestion how to change it?
